Chapter 96: Total Victory
Zheng Anping is a halberd soldier, so he always stands in the back row in this fierce battle, and only after the spearmen in front open the passage, he stepped forward to expand the breakthrough. With Zheng Anping's martial arts, it is not difficult to deal with a few miscellaneous soldiers from peasant backgrounds. What's more, Zheng Anping pays more attention to maintaining his position in the formation, so he has won a lot, and there is not much danger.
Ye Ling was a spearman, and he was charging forward, and he was very injured, but fortunately it was not serious, and it was not as strong as his muscles and bones. Under the leadership of Ye Ling, although Hu Yang's pro-camp is only the people's army of Ye County, it is not a selection of fronts, but it also has the momentum of selecting a front, which is not bad at all compared to the pro-battalion of Sima Jin and Doctor Gong!
After the Gong Doctor formed a surprise formation, Ye Ling was sent to the assault group and separated from Zheng Anping; And Zheng Anping, as a doctor, also undertook the command task of the left-wing group.
The eight battalions normally had 800 shieldmen, 800 halberd soldiers, 800 crossbowmen, and 1,600 spearmen. In all the battles since the beginning of the war, there have been some losses. Just now, the two battalions attacked alternately, breaking through three camp fences in a row, although the loss was not large, but it was only relative to the Zhao army.
In the era of cold weapons, unless you directly hit the vital point, it is actually very difficult to kill a person with one blow, and it generally only causes different degrees of damage. In cases where both sides are two swords, hitting each other is the most common situation. If you are killed or injured by the other party, it is most taboo to fall to the ground, as long as you have a breath, you have to get up and return to your own side. Otherwise, they will either be trampled to death, or their heads will be harvested. In the battle just now, the Qin army was the victorious side, so among the soldiers who fell in front of the battle, the Zhao army was all killed, while the Qin army was treated. But in any case, the battalions must not be full.
Now the left-wing group led by Zheng Anping has about 200 shield soldiers, 300 halberd soldiers, and 300 crossbow soldiers, and they are slowly advancing at a distance of thirty or forty paces behind the assault group. Zheng Anping was a temporarily promoted commander, and he did not have a horn, so he could only command with a password. And the number of people he commanded was close to a thousand, and he was foreign and spoke with an accent. For the convenience of command, Zheng Anping specially arrested a Qin pawn with a thick voice and gave orders on his behalf.
When the assault group changed from walking to running and assaulted forward, Zheng Anping did not order the troops to speed up the pace, and still maintained the original speed. So when the right battalion of the Zhao army rotated and prepared to attack the assault group, it happened to expose its flank to the Qin army. Zheng Anping ordered: "Shoot!" A rain of arrows passed, and although the results were not great, it slightly delayed the turn of the Zhao army. However, the small commotion here is obviously not enough to attract the attention of the chief general of the Zhao army, and it is the top priority to roll up the assault group in the front! The drums from the Chinese army were beating rapidly, urging the right battalion to quickly complete the rotation. Although the five hundred men of the right battalion kept an eye on it and bent the formation slightly to resist Zheng Anping's attack, the rotation was still fatal. After Zheng Anping shot the arrow at a closer distance, he immediately gave the order, "Get up!" His troops also switched to running. His troops were originally more than the Zhao army, and the Zhao army's combat direction was directed to the center, and the flank force was quickly broken, and the right battalion of the Zhao army was completely unprotected and could only be slaughtered. Although there are many people who fight to the death with their personal courage, hoping to pull a cushion on their backs when they die, only a few people have realized this wish. After the courageous people were cut down one by one, the rest scattered in a hurry. Zheng Anping broke through the first front without much loss!
He only tidied up his team a little, leaving the more seriously wounded soldiers to harvest the heads of the Zhao army, and the rest of the troops continued to advance. When he advanced to the flank of the enemy's first front, the first front of the Zhao army also collapsed in its entirety. So he saw the assault group break through to the second front where the main general was.
Listening to Zhao Jun's war drums and watching Zhao Jun's mobilization, Zheng Anping could clearly feel Zhao Jun's anxiety. The men of the third and fourth fronts were moving upwards in the hope of catching up with the fighting; And the central group of the second front was desperately resisting, buying time for the arrival of reinforcements. But Zheng Anping's face-to-face enemy still made the same mistake as the right battalion of the first front: rushing into the central battle. If they had gone all out against Zheng Anping, they might have been able to support it for a longer time, but the impulsive decision under the anxiety led to bitter consequences. The right battalion did not even bend his flank, but turned directly to the center, ready to storm the unprotected flank of the Qin assault group. How could Zheng Anping give him this opportunity, with a "shoot!" "After that, the arrows rained down! Zhao Jun was not afraid of death, and regardless of the shooting of Zheng Anping's troops, he attacked the flank of the Qin army's assault group. Zheng Anping shouted "Shoot!" three times in a row! "Almost half of the soldiers in the right battalion of the Zhao army were shot down, and the rest of the soldiers were also injured to varying degrees, especially the injuries of the shield soldiers, which had the greatest impact. The outermost spearmen of the Qin army's assault group turned their spearheads and blocked the onslaught of the Zhao army. Zheng Anping's subordinates caught up and cut down Zhao Jun in rows. The general trend of the Zhao army has gone, but it still ignores the casualties and fights desperately, even the seriously injured and fallen to the ground are sitting with weapons and making a fighting posture. But Zheng Anping knew that the battle was coming to an end!
Sure enough, soon there was a cheer among the Qin army, the drumming on the Zhao side stopped, and the banner fell. The Zhao army was silent for a moment, watching the Qin army charge forward, the bells rang in unison among the battalions, and the soldiers turned their heads and ran. The Qin army then pursued, and the Zhao army was crushed and completely driven away from the camp. At this time, the Qin army was actually scattered in formation, and almost all of them were fighting on their own. Finally, a long horn sounded from the center, ending the pursuit, and the battalions stopped their formations.
Sima Jin led the rear army to catch up, and the rear army did not stop, passing through the Zhao army camp and continuing to advance in the direction of the Zhao army's retreat. Sima Jin got out of the car and simply said to the doctor who was covered in blood: "But behead the level, and protect the wounded back to the camp!" ”
After passing the camp, you actually arrived at the Fushui West Bridge. The deck, which usually looks very wide, is jammed with retreating soldiers, and from time to time people are squeezed off the bridge. Those who know how to swim directly into the river simply jump into the river, and the river is full of human heads.
How could Sima Jin, who was tracking down, give up such an opportunity and reap the spoils of war on a large scale. A rain of arrows fell from the sky, and pieces of Zhao troops were shot down, and the river was dyed bloody. Zhao Jun was no longer able to turn around and resist at this time, so he just thought about crossing the river, or jumping into the water or going to the bridge, squeezing the front behind, and squeezing some people who didn't know how to water into the river, and drowned a lot alive. It took about half an hour before the massacre ended. Sima Jin cut off more than 2,000 ranks, and returned with satisfaction. At this time, the former army that stayed behind had just had time to bind the wounded.
Those whose flesh has been cut do hardly need to be bandaged, the blood has coagulated, and bandaging is just a psychological comfort or a little pain relief. They generally do not bleed much, but the wound is easy to blacken and fester, and the black blood needs to be completely squeezed out until bright red blood flows out, and this is a painful and long process. Some of the wounded had to be disemboweled, and they had to simply stuff their intestines back into their stomachs and wrap them tightly in cloth, and to be honest, whether they survived or not depended on luck – and most people did not have this good luck, and some of them even wanted to die young. There are not many fractures, most of them are arm bones, which are smashed by heavy stubs, and they are generally finished by finding a few wooden sticks and tying them with strips of cloth. Even though it was the easiest thing to deal with, it took a lot of time because of the large number of people who were almost injured.
Zhao Jun's head hung on their own camp fence, and Sima Jin simply asked about the number. The camp of the Zhao army was very rudimentary, with only very thin wooden sticks supporting the camp fence, and each camp had ten carts, and the cattle were frightened during the battle, and most of them did not know where they had gone. The general of the Zhao army was completely captured, and none of the three people in the car ran, sitting quietly next to the car. The pack horses were tied to the camp gate and guarded by a team of Qin guards. Sima Jin went over and asked, "Sima Jin, the fifth doctor of Chenqin." Dare to drive! ”
The three of them stood up, and one of them said: "The ministers and Zhao will be approved, and both are the sons of the ministers, Zhong and Ji!" ”
Sima Jin asked, "All Zhao?" ”
Zhao Zhun said: "Yes! ”
Sima Jin said bitterly: "It's all Zhao's, why fight like this!" Zhao Zhun didn't answer.
Sima Jin sent a military envoy to return to Wucheng, Sima Jun won a complete victory, Zhao Jun was killed by 10,000 people, and 10,000 people were captured! The envoy galloped away.
Sima Jin was worried that the defense of Wucheng was weak, and there were only more than 1,000 old and weak remnants, and when the army returned, he did not order it to stop, and drove back to Wucheng directly. Childe Iren has been following the rear army and has hardly encountered any danger. Sima Jin actually gave him the task of leading the whole army, and only instructed all the public doctors and official doctors to assist. Everyone knew that this was due to Gongzi Yiren, and they all understood it. They also used a recovered ox to pull a cart and bring Zhao Zhun and the other three back to Wucheng.
The doctor who led the assault also suffered several arrow wounds. Although he walked in the middle of the assault group, he did not participate in the fight, but only blew the trumpet. The people around him also consciously protected him. He didn't use the flag, so Zhao Jun didn't know that the Supreme Commander was actually inside the assault group. Moreover, in the Qin army, it seems that it has become a habit for everyone to fight according to the regulations, and the degree of dependence on the commander is not as good as that of the Zhao army, unlike the Zhao army, once the army is captured, the whole army will immediately collapse. He has already wrapped up his wounds and is patrolling the various places, comforting the wounded and sometimes helping them. Sima Jin summoned him with a trumpet, saw him, greeted him very affectionately, and fiercely exhorted him with a few kind words. Then ask him who the commander of the left wing is. Doctor Gong replied: "Zhonggen's pro-Wei Doctor Zheng! Sima Jin asked the doctor to take him to visit him.
Ye Ling was the vanguard of the assault force, and although he was brave and invincible, he also suffered many injuries. Scratches are not counted, the two injuries on the body and legs are deep to the bone. Zheng Anping was by his side to squeeze the blood for him.
Doctor Gong said: "It's Ye Ling and Doctor Zheng!" ”
